Calculate whether you can raise $20,000+ for a $1,997 investment

Concept: Sell or market books with back covers that feature your organization, school or library. You get the books for free and sell them for between $10 and $20 each, with our assistance.

Thank you for visiting this web page.  Please note that there no “Buy Now” link on this page.  I’m sure that we both prefer that we converse before you invest any money.  (You may, however, explore this site or click on the order page to buy a copy of the book, or ask me questions by phone or by filling out the form at the bottom of the page.)

I realize that your time is valuable, and I appreciate your investing your time reading this material, and possibly calling me on (775) 453-6636 (Pacific Time) to discuss your situation so that we can develop a business friendship.

By way of introduction, my name is Alan H. Jordan. I’m an author and I also am a principal in LB Creative, LLC Press, a small company that publishes books, e-books, audio books (CDs and .mp3 files) and physical bookmarks for fund-raising purposes. I have assembled a team of committed professionals.  We want to help non-profits, schools and libraries prosper despite the bad economy.

I also am writing Celebrity Magic – Celebrities, their Causes and the Magic they Weave and Enjoyable Fund Raising. Writing these books has provided me with insights and contacts that the average person just does not have.

This fund-raising concept takes advantage of cutting-edge technology to customize the back cover (and possibly an inside page) of books to explain the value of your organization, or of a particular fund-raising effort. Until recently it was not cost effective to use this technology.  It is likely to enable you to raise between $20,000 and $2 Million, with an outlay of just under $2,000.

The organizations that will make the most money at least two of these characteristics:

• An extensive e-mail list of “warm supporters,” people who know about the organization and believe in its goals, who would invest ten to thirty minutes of their time to help you reach your goals.
• Students or members who are willing to ask neighbors, friends, colleagues, etc. if they would be willing to buy a book, if 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the book went to support your organization.
• Is well know in your community, nationwide or world-wide.

The 30-second analysis:

1. What percentage of people on your “warm” mailing list will buy a great children’s book that sells for between $10 and $20. _____________% (a)

2. Multiply this x the number of people on your mailing list. ____________x people (b)

= number of sales _________________ (c)

X the sales price of the book =__________ (d) your profit. (You keep 100%)

This is one of seven sources of revenue. (If you’re a school one of the other sources is children and their parent selling the books in person, and by e-mail.)

Here’s how it works:

1. With our help, you sell a customized version of The Monster on Top of the Bed with a customized back cover to help your organization raise funds.  You sell it for  $10 to $20.00 and keep either $10.00 or the entire $20. 00, and possibly up to an extra $2.00 per book as profit.
2. The 100% profit option is the result of our getting someone else to pay for the book.  They do this because it helps them to build their business. We name specific companies who will agree to do this for you, and you can execute contracts with them.
3. The extra $2.00 comes from other revenue sources that continue long after the fund-raising drive is over. Here are two examples:  (a) people who make donations to your organization as a result of responding to an appeal on the back cover; and (b) people who related e-books from a website that’s identified on the back cover of the book.
4. We outline the sources of income  in a detailed strategy report and in a spreadsheet that you, your financial team and your legal advisers may use to project the amount of money you will raise.

We encourage you to share the spreadsheet, and the accompanying detailed strategy report to your accountants and your attorneys. I believe that they will respond to it in a positive way.  After all, you’re selling something of value for which someone else is paying, and you get to keep the profits.

If your financial, marketing and legal teams don’t agree that you are likely to make at least 10 times (1,000%) of your investment of $1,997.  (This includes $997 for product and $1,000 for consulting and finding companies that will buy books on your behalf.) I will within four days of receiving your request, issue a refund of $1,000 to you, and keep $997.

The $997 includes 57 copies of the customized book.  57 copies because:

• 5 to distribute to bloggers to get base publicity
• 2 to distribute to newspapers to get local coverage
• 50 to sell for $20 each.
• Once you see how easy it is to sell 50 copies of the books using the plan that’s described in the detailed strategy report, which includes partners who will underwrite many of your costs and help you to make sales, you’ll be motivated to sell thousands of the books.

The strategy report is a form of consulting. I charge $1,000 for it because it’s a lot of work to find the right partner for you and get them to agree to pay for the books so you can make money.  You might think of the $1,000 as “earnest money.”  Once you decide to accept the detailed strategy report, and/or carry out any of the suggestions in it, the guarantee ends.

The guarantee is good for 60 days after you receive the written strategy report and the ybooks, which will take between two and four weeks to prepare.   If you use a credit card, you may print out this page and have PayPal or VISA, MasterCard or American Express enforce my guarantee, but it won’t come to that.  I’ll refund $1,000  of your investment, or you can release the funds from escrow.

Why do I make this guarantee?  Three reasons:

1. To make you comfortable;

2. It has taken me years to develop a variety of ways and integrate them to assure that you make at least $20,000.

3. Generic explanations don’t work.  You need to see specifics.  You need to confirm that the ideas not only make sense, but that the partners who will help you carry out them are practical partners.

Here’s what will happen:

1. Fill out the form below, and/or  call me to discuss your needs.  If I feel that it is likely that you will benefit from our services, we will ask a check or a charge to your credit card for $1,997.
2. Within four business days someone will discuss your needs with you.
3. After that discussion, we will prepare a preliminary strategy memo which we will discuss with you. Then, armed with your opinion, we will prepare a detailed strategy report for you.  Share this with your accountant and your attorney, but you agree not to share the information in it with others or to use that information to compete with us.
4. Within one month you will receive the 57 copies of The Monster on Top of the Bed. You have 60 days from the time that you receive our detailed strategy report and the books to ask for a refund of $1,000 out of $1,997.  Remember, this guarantee is in effect only as long as you have not implemented the suggestions that are in our detailed strategy report.  It’s only fair. At this point I am selling you three things:  (a) a detailed game plan and (b) specific names and contact information of people and companies that you will immediately recognize as practical partners.  These people will have either agreed to help you carry out the strategies in my report, or be willing to further investigate it with you; (c) 107 customized copies of The Monster on Top of the Bed.
5. Before you say, “hogwash,” or something like that, consider these factors:
   • This is not just a “landing page.”  You may explore an entire website here that explains the value of the book, The Monster on Top of the Bed, and there are many glowing third-party reviews.
   • It’s possible for you to make much more than $20,000.
   • If The Monster on Top of the Bed does not appeal to you, we also have other books that you can use.

That’s it.  There’s nothing more to say.  If you’re interested, fill out the form below or call (775) 453-6636, Pacific Time.  If  you’re not interested, thanks for taking the time to read this.  Feel free to ask other people about this page, and get their reactions.
